City commissioner was ejected from a white Mustang in a roll-over crash late Sunday in Longwood.

Witnesses have told Longwood police that city commissioner H.G. "Butch" Bundy's car was speeding and ran a red light before a rollover crash that left him in critical condition on Sunday, and investigators believe alcohol was also involved.

In a statement, the Police Department said that a preliminary investigation determined that speed and alcohol are "contributing factors" to the crash near the intersection of Ronald Reagan Boulevard and North Street about 8 p.m. Sunday.

"The toxicology samples have been submitted to [the Florida Department of Law Enforcement] and the results are pending," police spokesman Officer Kevin Tuck said. "Charges will be determined pending the outcome of those results."

According to police, witnesses say Bundy's white Ford Mustang struck a median and overturned after failing to stop for a red light. Bundy was thrown from the car and a "female family friend" passenger was trapped inside.

Both Bundy, 62, and the woman, identified as 61-year-old Christine Thompson, were taken to Orlando Regional Medical Center. Bundy was in critical condition and has head injuries, authorities said.

Thompson is in serious but stable condition, Tuck said.

In a statement released Monday afternoon, Bundy's family described his condition as "critical but stable," and called the crash a "private family matter."

"We appreciate all the concern, thoughts and prayers that have been extended to Butch, our family and loved ones," the statement said. "Butch loves his community and has been truly touched by the outpouring of support."

Said fellow commissioner, Joe Durso, who was at the hospital with Bundy's family: "We are just praying for him... His wife has indicated they want to keep this as a family matter."

Bundy, a former two-term mayor for Longwood, owns the ceramic contracting business Longwood Tile and Marble with his wife, Donna Bundy. Traffic investigators are working to determine what caused the crash.

A few minutes before the crash, Longwood police received a call about a reckless driver, but officers did not pursue the car because it is prohibited by department policy.

The vehicle from which the commissioner was ejected matched the description of the speeding vehicle from the reckless driving call — a white Cobra Mustang convertible, Tuck said. But, Tuck cautioned, the crash is still under investigation and police have not determined whether it was the car Bundy was driving.

The convertible was not registered to Bundy or Thompson, Tuck said.

Seminole County tax collector Ray Valdes said Bundy has been active in county politics for more than 20 years.

Bundy has served on the city commission since 1999 in various roles including as a three-time chairman of the Code Enforcement Board and on the board of directors of the Seminole County Regional Chamber of Commerce. He also serves on the Florida League of Cities Municipal Services Committee.

Seminole County Republic Party Chairman Al Schwarz released a statement late Sunday asking for prayer for the Bundy family and for his "full and complete recovery, as well as all of those involved in the accident."

Valdes said the accident is particularly "unfortunate" for the Bundy family, which has struggled recently through Donna Bundy's diagnosis and fight against cancer.

Friends left messages for Bundy on his Facebook page wishing him well and his daughter Emily Nicole Bundy responded with this note:

"On this November day my family and I are finding ourselves thankful for the smallest of miracles…" she wrote about noon Monday. "As we go through this week we ask that you please give our family and friends the space and time needed for my father to heal and for us to all regroup."
